Mechanisms of soil organic carbon stability and its response to no-till: A global synthesis and perspective

Zheng-Rong Kan et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the mechanisms affecting SOC stability in NT systems, including priming effects, molecular structure of SOC, aggregate protection, association with soil minerals, microbial properties, and environmental effects. NT improves macro-aggregation and lowers SOC mineralization compared with CT. Chemical protection and higher microbial activity in NT contribute to SOC stabilization in the long term.

Effects of Diversified Cropping Sequences and Tillage Practices on Soil Organic Carbon, Nitrogen, and Associated Fractions in the North China Plain

Ahmad Latif Virk et al.

Summary: Limited information exists regarding the effects of soil tillage systems and cropping sequences on soil organic carbon, nitrogen, and their associated fractions. A field study was conducted to assess these effects, revealing that tillage systems mainly affected SOC and N distribution in topsoil depths, while cropping sequences had varying effects across the soil profile. Notably, no tillage systems with soybean crops were found to be effective in sequestering SOC and N in the North China Plain.
